Engineering crews on Dec. 12, 2016, started taking soil samples from below the foundation of the old Kmart building along 32nd Street in Yuma. The work is the first big step in a massive renovation project to convert the building into the Veterans Neurological Research Center. The Center is a joint project of The Cocopah Indian Tribe and Medical Management Group. In this video, Cocopah Business Development Director Gary Magrino and Group Delta Engineering Geologist Jim Sanders explain how this work is taking the project to the next level.
